My mom died from colon cancer at age 44. She seemed healthy, she didnt smoke, barely drank.. then one summer night, a call that mom is in the hospital, a night later, it's colon cancer, and then the funeral. She insisted her three kids each get screened as soon as insurance would pay for it. And so, in order, each of us went at age 30, or 35, for our first, and each of us has had the type of polyp that makes a doctor go "hrm" removed. Probably they just go hrm and remove all of them though. Anyways, I'm not a doctor, and I also can't meditate upon the health of my colon enough to correctly assess its health; I remain convinced these early scans are going to really help me and what's left of my family out, and I'm glad to bother with it. Just go do it, if you're putting it off. It's more annoying than getting a filling but it's less annoying than getting three fillings.
